Valuable Red Snap'r® Charger Features and Benefits

Reliable power source for farm fence lines up to 5 miles in length

Weather-resistant cabinet that protects circuitry against the elements

Accessibility to a power source and environmental conditions play key roles in determining the type of charger that is best-suited for powering your electric fence. An AC-powered charger such as the Red Snap'r® AC-Powered 5 Mile Charger is often the best choice when a 110 or 220V power source is available, while a battery-powered DC charger can work well for isolated areas with limited access to electricity. A solar-powered fence charger can offer a cost-effective alternative in areas that receive ample sunlight.

Electric fence chargers should be stored in a place that protects it from the weather, either indoors free from moisture or outdoors in a protective enclosure.

Regardless of which Red Snap'r® fence charger is right for you, you’ll get the benefit of reliable electric fence supplies backed by more than 25 years of technological innovation. Most Red Snap'r® fence chargers are made in the USA!

All About

All About Fence Chargers

Chargers are the heart of the fence system, providing the source for the electric current that flows through the fence wire.

The size of charger needed is dependent upon your fencing needs. These needs are determined by three main factors: the length of the fence (number of wires), the power source (AC, DC or Solar), and the type of animal being contained or excluded.

See our comparison charts of our fence chargers to help you determine which is best for your needs.

TYPES OF CHARGERS

There are three main types of chargers: AC-Powered, Battery-Operated and Solar-Powered. The source of power for the charger to function determines the type of charger you will be using. Each type of charger has specific situations in which it is most desirable to use.

Selecting the right fence charger with adequate power for your enclosure is critical to keeping your animals safe.

Expert Tips

Choosing the Right Fence Charger

The right fence charger is the heart of your electric fence system. Finding the best-matched charger for your fence is imperative to successfully contain/exclude animals. The experts at Zareba® Systems explain a simple process to ensure you buy the right fence charger to meet your needs.

FAQs about Chargers

Q: What factors should I consider when purchasing a fence charger?

A: The power source (AC, Battery or Solar Powered), energy output (in joules), the type of animal being controlled, the length of the fence (more wires need more power) and the amount of vegetation growing near the fence should be considered when you are selecting your fence charger.

Q: What does Low Impedance mean? I see it on chargers in stores and on websites.

A: Low impedance chargers increase the joules (energy) on a fence line if weeds or other vegetation touch the fence. Low impedance chargers are ideal for long, multi-strand poly wire, tape, rope or high tensile fence systems. Low impedance chargers are recommended for most applications and can be operated by AC, DC or Solar Power.

The other type of charger, known as a solid state charger, is usually used to control short-haired livestock, small animals, and pets where only moderate weed conditions exist. These chargers deliver a medium-amperage shock and can be operated by AC or DC.

Q: Why does my fence charger make clicking noises?

A: Most fence chargers have a pulsed output. Every time it “clicks,” it is releasing energy to the fence that has been stepped up or increased through a capacitor and a transformer. This release of energy makes noise. Not all chargers make the clicking noise. The noise is designed for the owner of the charger and serves no functional purpose.
